Decided on getting adobo fried rice omelet. It was onolicious and tasted just like my mom’s adobo recipe!
We additionally got some come sushi to grind later in the day!
They posted on their menu that the make the gravy old traditional way but it was nothing like that and doesn’t even taste close to that…
So i’ll not like to go to this place again.
Only “pro” is that the service & staff were good.
—————————————————————————————
Tonight I decided to try Shiro’s Ewa Beach with my children because of the $0.50 Anniversary special that was mentioned on the local news earlier in the week.
There was a long line… The line was slow-moving… There was a lot of kitchen staff, but they were slow… I placed an order for 5 small saimin (nothing else; no modifications) at the take-out window…
I waited patiently for our order, giving them the benefit of the doubt being that they had this special going on.
It was when I started to notice that other customers who had ordered 20 minutes AFTER we ordered (and definitely not phone orders because I was paying attention) that I started to get irritated. Their orders with other plate lunch food and burgers/fries and saimin were being completed.
After watching at least 4 orders get picked up, and being the ONLY customers remaining at outside the takeout area, only then did I walk up to the pickup window. (Mind you, the staff can see out and we can see in through the clear glass windows.) The worker inquired about what our order was.
Turns out our order was not even in the front area where orders were being processed!!!! She walked to the back where the saimin noodles were being cooked, dashi was kept, and garnishes set-up. Lo and behold, PART of our order was sitting in a soda can box (3 out of the 5 small saimin)… I watched the worker scoop dashi, add garnishes, and grab readily prepared saimin noodles for 2 of our small saimin!
She walked back to us in the front, with no explanation as to WHY it took 30 MINUTES for us to get our 5 small saimin order!?! I asked her why it took so long, and her excuse was that the restaurant side was also busy?!? I understand that, I could see into the restaurant side, but it is UNACCEPTABLE that we had to wait that long.
The worker even tried to deny that other takeout orders placed after mine did not include saimin! I know for a fact that their saimin (small as well as other sizes) were picked up! The worker thought she would be sending me on my merry way since I got what I ordered.
In no way was I offered something to make up for the long and unnecessary wait! She said that since the saimin special was cheap, there was nothing she could do. When I asked to speak to the manager, she told me that the manager is too busy with the dine in section to handle my issue. I insisted on speaking to the manager.
After talking to the manager, and only after my suggestion on complimentary drinks for my 4 children and myself did we walk away with 2 small fresh saimin (dashi & noodles), 3 small soggy saimin (cold dashi & noodles), 4 small fruit punches, and 1 small Pepsi (with ice, even though I asked for NO ICE)!
I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND this place!
– Horrible customer service
– Incompetent staff at the takeout window
– And no doubt, the workers (Filipino ladies) talking sh*t about me.
– The amount of food for the price is not worth it. I WOULD NOT PAY REGULAR PRICE for the saimin quantity and quality.
– Unacceptable wait time for a takeout order.
**I guess I got my $0.50 worth of Saimin and customer service with my order.**
